“A writer needs three things, experience, observation, and imagination.

With me, a story usually begins with a single idea or memory or mental picture.

The writing of the story is simply a matter of working up to that moment, to explain why it happened or what it caused to follow.

A writer is trying to create believable people in credible moving situations in the most moving way he can.”
Faulkner
